Udderly Smooth Extra Care Cream contains 10% Urea which is well-known for its hydrating, exfoliating and protecting properties.

Nausea Relief Wristbands (1 pair of resuable accupressure wristbands)
Nausea Relief Wristbands are a natural and proven way to help ease chemotherapy related nausea. Research has shown that patients who wore acupressure wristbands reported less chemotherapy related nausea on the day of treatment compared with those who didn't wear them. The plastic stud attached to the inside of the wrist band exerts pressure and stimulates the P6 (or Nei-Guan) acupressure point and it is widely believed that pressure on this point relieves nausea and vomiting.
MooGoo SPF15 Lip Balm (5g)
Sore or chapped lips can be an unwelcome side effect of chemotherapy treatment and your loved one is sure to appreciate this lovely, natural MooGoo SPF15 Lip Balm, perfect for soft and smooth lips. We've chosen a lip balm containing SPF because some chemotherapy treatments can make skin extra sensitive to sun exposure.
Stress Ball
Stress balls are great for relieving tension and pent up frustration. The repeated pattern of grip and release helps to alleviate tension & stress and is an activity that your loved one can do anywhere. Stress balls can also be used to help pump veins which is useful when having IV chemotherapy and they can also help to ease chemotherapy induced neuropathy.
Gin-Gins Ginger Chews (42g)
Evidence shows that ginger is an effective treatment for nausea and vomiting which can be an unfortunate side effect of chemotherapy. These chewy ginger sweets are made with 10% fresh ginger and are a tasty way to consume ginger.

Chemotherapy treatment can affect the taste and appetite. Neat Natural Energy Bar is a delicious and nutritious vegan snack bar made using natural ingredients with no added sugar and no palm oil. (Random flavour allocation)
Bamboo Pocket Tissues (1 packet containing 10 tissues)
It's always handy to have a packet of tissues around when dealing with the emotions that a cancer diagnosis can bring, but did you know that alongside hairloss, chemotherapy patients lose their nasal hair and eyebrows & eyelashes often resulting in a runny nose and watery eyes. Made from 100% sustainable bamboo, these tissues are eco-friendly and plastic free but they are also naturally hypoallergenic.
